To quote my favorite President: Trust, but verify. I wonder how anyone will be able to verify that N.K will abide with the agreement?

The possible difference here is if the Chinese see this in their best interests–which they well may. Strange bedfellows and all that. $300 is worth it if there is a reasonable chance to succeed. The hard truth is without the Chinese, we don’t have much hope of bringing these guys to heel.

Let the remnants of the Condi ‘08 talk die with that quote.

Bolton seems to have things about right.

Japan, South Korea, China and Russia have been watching John Murtha on CNN, and when they finished laughing, decided to put together this deal to appease North Korea.

The whole thing should be written on toilet paper, which will be used by Pyongyang after digesting a meal of under cooked pork, refried beans, and cabbage.

I even wonder if we still have that ‘Boomer’ parked off shore? Probably not……….

Get it in writing? Chamberlain got it in writing. Words mean absolutely nothing to a dictator who thinks he’s a god.

These days you have to be as clear cut as possible. I mean Iraq has over 600,000 violent chemical weapons not accounted for. They just dissapeared when we didn’t find them…Yikes.

Think of it as a trap and not a deal.

It seems the critics of the administration just cant make up thier mind if Bush is being to unilateral or to multilateral. Whatever he is doing is obviously wrong even if they dont understand or remember it.

I haven’t read everything, do we even know what they (NOKO) have? What really caused that curious underground explosion?

Did we just do the unthinkable? Negotiate with terrorists?
How bout those three words?
We paid for what? A few months? A couple years?
The inside pressures (the left) and International pressures made this happen this way, and if Bolton doesn’t like it, neither do I. …

There is One important word I heard in the agreement, “CHEATING”, and that IS in the ‘agreement’. We better have some gumballs WHEN the NOKO’s cheat, not if, but when.
And we will know when….just about when that $300 Mil runs out.

$300 million in aid? That’s chump change.
I am amazed that we were able to buy them off in any way with only $300 million.

Unless this is seen as a means of ‘holding off’ really dealing with North Korea until Iran / Iraq are taking care of this is not much different then what Halfbright came up with.

Kimmie-boy will only move his development to another site.

NO NO NO…It put it in writing in a way that WAS unilateral before. Now it has many more hands involved. Politics…Polictics…Politics.

I would in the short term try…not through direct negotiation…but many parties, to get a deal with IRAN.

This leads to a more legal justification for military conflict. It sucks but people around the world are stupid as rocks when it comes to dealing with Dictatorships.

GOTTA GET IT IN WRITING

Sounds like Iraq, post Gulf war. Will Kim start moving missles around to evade inspectors?
